I love TV, but during the summer nothing beats the weather on the Chesapeake Bay in Virginia. The rural area of the bay, not the city.

NOTHING better than the smell of summer mornings in the Catskills. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Living in the Catskill Mountains in the springtime (or summer and fall) is like living in paradise. Nights are cool, Days are in the 70s and 80s, Cool breezes most of the time. Yes we do get rainy days every now and then, which only helps to clean the air, And water the vegetation. Humidity is very low most of the time. I just love the color green that comes in the spring with the new growth on the trees. It's like an effervescent green on the Pine and the hardwood. The amount of oxygen in the air cannot be beat anywhere. The water in the lakes and streams are clean and cool ( no alligators). No need for air conditioning, Although I always have a sweater in my car as the evenings can get quite cool. There are so many things to do outdoors that you cannot do in some places that are just too hot. Yes it's hard to get used to but I keep trying

I have memories of working on my deck in Mass. The tools would get so hot you could not pick them up.

Yup aj. You can't leave the tools in the sun. A pry bar almost branded my palm!

I know in Massachusetts we'd usually get one or two weeks of 90 degrees in July and August. What strikes me as funny is the people who live here full time and complain about the heat. It's Florida and it's July. What did you think it was going to be?

When we lived in Miami in the 70s they told us the temp never went above 94 because above that temp it just rains. Well, it rains there EVERY afternoon anyway

That's what my in-laws say. Why argue?

A big reason why a lot of California, particularly near the coast...is so expensive (and populated).

Too many bugs and jellyfish

It's been 93/94 at our lake in Ontario, Canada. I'm glad that a heat wave doesn't happen here very often.
